Last night in the co-main event of “UFC Fight Night Stockholm”, Dan Henderson was stopped with strikes for just the 2nd time in his career. The stoppage was a controversial one however, with many thinking the referee stopped the fight too early, and didn’t give Henderson enough time to recover.
Below is a compilation of Tweets regarding the bout, as well as the stoppage.

Not a bad stoppage the refs are SO SLOPPY. If the ref didn't tackle Mousasi he would have kept that top position Dan would have got smashed
